Why do you not put you dogs on the lead when passing anglers?
Last weekend whist fishing a woman was walking her dog round a lake I was fishing, firstly she shouldn't have been there as it was a commercial fishery and the only reason to be there is to fish there is no public access or walk, secondly she had her dog , a lab , off the lead.
The dog was well in front of here and came over to me and promptly stated to eat some meat I had in the bait box, in fairness the woman came over and apologies and rather than have a go at her I thought I'd try to make her keep her dog on the lead in future in such circumstances. I said to her "Keep an eye on your dog, that meat he's eaten had maggot juice in it, some chillies ground up and curry powder, nothing that will hurt him but it might make him ill or sick"
The woman n looked a bit worried but thanks me and said she'd watch her dog in case he was vomiting or had upset stomach.
The dog would be fine, in truth the meat was just plain lunchmeat with nothing added but it might make her think twice about letting her dog off the lead round anglers
